You’re imagining a day that reflects your relationship: relaxed, connected, and true to who you are. A celebration with your favorite people (and maybe your dog), surrounded by epic views and zero pressure to perform.
Maybe you see yourselves exchanging vows on a quiet overlook in Telluride, or having a long, un-rushed dinner in a cozy Breckenridge cabin. You want space to be present and feel it all. No timelines that stress you out. No ten-mile hikes to get the view. Just a beautiful, grounded experience you’ll never forget.
LET'S FUCKING GO
Dreaming of a Colorado elopement that feels like the best weekend ever… just with vows?
More than a photographer—
As a Colorado elopement photographer and videographer, I’m here to help you plan a day that reflects your relationship, not someone else’s expectations. I’ll guide you to easy access locations with incredible views, help you build a timeline that leaves space for connection, and document all the real, in-between moments that matter.
From permit guidance to vendor recs and making space for both time alone and with your people, I’m in your corner from start to finish.
your guide, calm presence, and trusted friend
I help couples plan and document deeply personal and meaningful elopements in the Colorado. Over the years, I’ve walked alongside so many kind hearted humans who want something more than a traditional wedding, they want a day that feels connected and full of intention.
Whether you're figuring out permits, searching for an epic (but easy-to-get-to) location, or wondering how to include your dog and your people, I’m here to make this feel doable, fun, and true to you. I don’t just show up with a camera. I bring years of experience, calming energy, a deep love for storytelling, and a whole lot of heart.
Let’s make your elopement day feel like the best parts of your relationship: real, joyful, and grounded in what matters most.
Here for the good views, real moments, and whatever makes your day feel right
